Brad,
Here's the other part of the problem. My internal hard disk is at scsi id
6, and my external Syquest drive is at scsi id 2. MacBSD refers to the
Syquest at /dev/sd0a and the internal disk as sd1a through whatever. the
/etc/fstab.sd file refers to the usr slice as being on sd0g, which would
put it on the Syquest. The Syquest does not have any NetBSD partitions on
it, only one Mac partition. I tried referring to the /usr partition as
/dev/sd1g and booting failed because the system couldn't find
/usr/libexec/tty0e. I tried booting into single user mode to correct the
problem, but the filesystem was read only. Do I have to start over from
scratch with MacBSD, or can I salvage this installation.

Sorry for the trouble, and thanks for your help so far.

Jim
